Dogs Hope.com
is "staffed" by two volunteers. . . .
Deb and Jan (staffed used loosely).

We both live in
Lake County about 30 miles East of Cleveland,
Ohio.

We are
not a shelter
or facility where the dogs are available for viewing or surrendering. .
. we are two individuals with a love for the animals. We are two ladies
who try to do everything within our limited
powers to help any needy pet.

We are not
a 501c3 Charitable Organization. Maybe some day we
will be a "real" charity, able to accept your donations giving you the
ability to deduct them from your taxes. But for today, we can only say
"thank you" when you donate and promise that every donation has gone
to a spay/neuter, vaccinations, health check-up, heartworm check, heartworm
treatment, worming meds, antibiotics for sick pets and all needed veterinary
care for the animals that come through our rescue. Deb and I pay for all the
above needed care out of our own pockets.

Through our
rescue are key words. . . remember we're
not a shelter.
When we have space in our homes we foster in our homes. . . when we don't have
space in our own homes for a foster, we depend on the angels that have opened
up their homes to help us foster. (we really need foster homes)

A little about
us:

Deb has been helping
the strays, owner surrenders and local pounds try to find good homes for needy
dogs since 1977. She has always taken pro-active steps in our
local area,
she has fostered and placed numerous death row dogs throughout the years.

Deb has a real soft
spot in her heart for the German Shepherd and that is how we came to be
co-rescuers and friends. I (Jan) have always
loved the German Shepherd Dog, I'd grown up with German Shepherds, raised my son
with German Shepherds and now find myself a pro-active rescuer with Debbie,
we've been working together since 1999.
(I am also the web mistress)

If you would like to
surrender a
dog and have it "featured" on the website, we need a description, history and
very important pictures of your
dog.

Please be patient
with us, if you haven't heard back from us in a couple of days with
some kind note, then chances are we haven't seen your
application or received your email. Do try again. . . don't give up on us.

Raven
is the reason there is a Dogs Hope. If this wonderful girl had not
come into my life, Deb & I would not have met and Dogs Hope wouldn't
be what it is today.

If
you have adopted from us or we've helped you place your dog through Dogs
Hope, it's because of my beloved Raven.

It
is with a very heavy heart and many, many tears falling on my keyboard
that I type this tribute to my beautiful, loving, baby girl Raven.

In Loving Memory of our fur kids
